choice of whether we should play sports or not will come sooner than we think. Our stereotypical, over cautious mom may prevent us from playing because she views high school sports as an extremely intense war and fails to notice the benefits they actually provide. Educational rewards, sportsmanship, team bonding, confidence, learning experience, health and fitness are the prime reasons high school sports have become a key part of today’s culture. Sure, a few sports may cause a little bump on the forehead
